This is a review of the Elegoo “The Most Complete Starter Kit.” I decided to purchase and review this kit because I thought it might make a great beginner kit for kids or adults aspiring to get into electronics. After receiving and opening the packaging, I was very impressed. The contents of the package were neatly packaged in a nice plastic container with individual compartments. All of the components were neatly packaged and appeared to be in good quality. In total, the kit contains over 200 components including an Arduino compatible Elegoo UNO R3. If the components were sourced individually on Amazon, I estimate this kits value at over $170.00. The kit also includes a CD that contains illustrated tutorials, the Arduino IDE, drivers and the Arduino code required for programming. This kit is a great value for someone interested in getting started with DIY electronics, as well as experienced electronics builders.

When I pulled the Elegoo UNO from it’s packaging, I found it to be in good quality, and was pleasantly surprised to find it even has the pin numbers screen printed on each side. After installing the Arduino IDE and drivers from the included CD, I plugged in the UNO and had it running the blink sketch. I made a modification to the sketch and uploaded to confirm everything was communicating properly.
